| Abstract: | Using survey, interview, and archival data, the authors investigate two questions related to managerial accountants' (MA) performance evaluations (PE) and promotion processes: (1) Are there "fast tracks" (i.e., positive serial dependencies) in promotions; (2) Are promotions primarily determined by within-rank comparisons (i.e., "relative" comparisons) or comparisons to standards (i.e., "absolute" evaluations); The survey data (n = 101) suggest that lower- and higher-ranking MA have differing perceptions of PE and promotion processes. For example, lower-ranking MA generally believe in the existence of fast-track promotions while higher-ranking MA do not. The authors conclude by discussing the importance and limitations of the authors' results. |
